Hello, my name is Tricia Bach and I am thrilled to be part of the Parkville Tots family! ​ Previously I was the assistant director and co-teacher for both 3's and 4's classes at similar program. My background is in education and I have loved working with children from a young age. I started helping my mother in our church nursery when I was just 10 years old, babysat and worked in a childcare center while in high school, and went on to receive my bachelor's in elementary education from Stevenson University in 2006. I worked in my family's small business as a ship's agent and office manager for over 10 years while my children were little, but returned to my passion of educating young children 4 years ago. In addition to my BS in Elementary Education, I and certified in Early Childhood Education as well as CPR/First Aid. ​ My husband Tim and I married right after college in 2006 and currently live in nearby Perry Hall with our children and fur baby. We have 3 children, Allison (16), Cassidy (12), and Montgomery (8) and two fur-babies, Jagger and Gwen. I love singing (although I tend to get stage fright when put on the spot), reading, visiting vineyards, and spending time with my family. ​ I am excited to get to know your children and help them grow and learn this school year!
